I am adding this note on all of my policy pages of you are here for the legAlities they are below but I just want to break it down in simple English ..I am just an old school blogger who has been blogging since before the word existed. My blog is a hobby first and foremost and not a business …I do this for fun and not to get rich
Lately there have been so many changes with blogging whether they are from Google or different laws that I literally spend more time on the back side of things trying to comply and I admit it is frustrating especially when I don’t do a lot of things typical bloggers do
I am a blogger who doesn’t
Use Google analytics
Allow comments because of harassment and trolling in the past
Run giveaways
Participate in affiliate marketing for the most part
Run a newsletter
sell anything
I am just here to ramble and try to have fun
I use a few plugins that help track traffic such as where you are from ip address location who is data.
Basically this just shows me stats that I can give to my advertisers and sponsors about page views and general info be sure to read my cookie policy and my privacy policy and my affiliate policy as well
These plugins include jetpack and wordfence and jetpack also helps monitor my sites uptime among other feature Wordfence helps me also with things like blocking attacks
I am not going to share any of your private data with anyone and quite frankly wouldn’t even know how to do so .If you have concerns though about any of these things please send an email to nichole@autumn-rain.net and we will go from there
